Lost

in the continuing controversy over Hillary Clinton’s emails and now whether the

Russians already have the 30,000 ones she destroyed and, if so, whether they

ought to release them, was this real cyber

crisis:  The Obama administration has

confirmed that cyberattacks on our electric grid could have catastrophic

effects. 

Yesterday,

the Wall Street Journal reported that

President Obama has ordered up a 5-level system for assessing the damage done by

hackers, and guiding appropriate responses:

“A ‘Level 5’ event is one that ‘poses an imminent threat to the provision

of wide-scale critical infrastructure services, national government stability

or the lives of U.S. persons’ such as an extensive failure of the power grid.” 

This

is the ultimate transpartisan issue.

We must protect every American by protecting the electric grid, not just tell

them how bad the attack was after the fact.
